for histopathological examinations.
The descriptive and inferential statistical methods were used (frequency distributions, percentages, incidence rate, standardized ratio and relative risk) Results: In Iraq from 2001-2013, there were 1664 cases with overall M:F ratio (1.4 : 1).
The most affected age group was (50-69 yrs), tongue was the most common affected site, grade II was the most common, and the highest number of OSCC was reported in Baghdad governorate.
A negative time trend was observed in the overall (crude) incidence rate of all registered OSCC in Iraq.
